Nice - no need to get insulting. If you think that stating that we've conceded a lot of goals from giving the ball away via short passes in our own half is pretentious clap trap, then fair enough. I think its just a statement of fact, and I think trying to work out why the manager might have picked the team to address that problem is just common sense. And if you want to go to great lengths to avoid any credit to the manager - who has done pretty well for us lets face it - and to put a good result down to luck rather than the way he set the team up, so be it.RocketLawnChair wrote:More luck than management . Write as much pretentious clap trap as you like. We were bloody awful in that first half, we were extremely lucky today.

You drone on and on and on as if you are from some higher echelon. Paragraph after paragraph that could be put into two sentences.claretspice wrote:Nice - no need to get insulting.

Your posts maybe shorter but funnily enough they are still full of plenty of sh-ite.

Re: Team Lineup
I support the manager and have not once claimed he should be relieved of his duties. Just call what I see and people are getting carried away with a decent result no in fact excellent result.But we will need to play better than that if we are going to survive.

If you don’t like Jackie Collins novels you don’t bother reading her new book just in case you might like it !!
Now I reckon that’s the first time Jackie Collins has been mentioned on this message board in a long time !
